Mean time between failures (MTBF) is the predicted elapsed time between inherent failures of a system during operation. MTBF can be calculated as the arithmetic mean (average) time between failures o...

Mean Time Between Failure: Explanation and Standards By Wendy Torell Victor Avelar White Paper #78 Executive Summary Mean Time Between Failure is a reliability term used loosely Clearly, the importance of defining a failure should be evident and must be understood before attempting to interpret any MTBF value.

(acronym for Failures In Time) FIT Rate is a statistic for a component that measures how many failures the component will have per one billion operating hours. The lower the FIT Rate for a component is, the better the component is.

It can be described as the number of hours that pass before a component, assembly, or system fails. It is a commonly-used variable in reliability and maintainability analyses. ... Mean Time To Failure (MTTF)

MTBF, not to be confused with MFBT, plots the mean time before failure of builds for the first 60 days of their release. This report is useful for identifying releases which are crashing more often than expected, day over day through release.

Santa Clara is the saint of semiconductors. Cough ... 500GB units come with five year guarantee ... The drives have a rating of 1.2 million hours before failure, said WD. [Is that 120 years? Ed.]

In order to understand MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) it is best to start with something else -- something for which it is easier to develop an intuitive feel. This other concept is failure rate which is, not surprisingly, the average (mean) rate at which things fail.

Most mean time before failure ratings are generally quite impressive but can also be meaningless ... Most power supply manufacturers can provide MTBF (mean time before failure) ratings for their products. This data is presented as a number of hours, ranging from hundreds of thousands to over a million.
